Wales star Gareth Bale was delighted to reveal another attacking weapon after introducing his long throw-in to international football.
Wales played yesterday 2-2 against Austria in their World Cup qualifying.
Bale applied a "new" technique which he used during his time at Tottenham: long throws.
The Welshman said after the game: "I've had a long throw for a while but we've only just brought it out. It was a nice surprise to use and it worked to help us get that point.
He added: "Some days you don't have your best games but we've learned how to dig deep over the years.
"This isn't an easy place to come. They haven't lost here in a long while or even dropped points.
"So to get a point is massive, especially when we're not playing at our best.
"That's the difference of this team now. When we're not playing well we know how to dig deep and grind results out," he said.
